Rear pads burning out

Every time i do a trackday i burn a set of rear pads out what could be wrong or is this normal, Callipers not sticking and never use handbrake on trackday.

Madteg, what kind of pads are they on the back.

I have done a number of track days and activity days in mine and never got close to using a set of pads at the front, never mind the back - OEM pads on MK indy (BEC).

cheers
Craig

Willing to bet rakes are binding when hot due to fluid expansion.
